2. Is MSNBC having any of Cohen's victims on to remember what a swell guy he was?

When he was riding high, Michael Cohen was a terrific practitioner of kicking down. Anyone who wasn't level with him and his illustrious boss got little but contempt from him, if he even deigned to notice them. Threats, insults, and truculence were the coins of his realm: "Says who? Says who? Says who?" He regarded debate or discussion as a personal attack and ridiculed anyone who would question him or his boss.

Does MSNBC remember any of that?

He certainly was a piece of work when he was working for him. I'll never forget the first time I saw him...."Says who?"

It will be interesting after these three years are said and done if there's a true atonement for his past acts. I suppose people can change. We'll see if it happens here or not.

A lot of us get fooled by that.
